restore metadata for pool -> incompatible version
-
Dear all,
I needed to do a complete new installation of xcp-ng 8.3 LTS. I have backups of all VMs incl. the pool metadata. The latest daily backup was done on 09th of December and now, if upgrade the fresh installed xcp-ng to v35 release, the metadata backup can't be restored. Either by XenOrchestra or with "xe pool-restore-metadata" the restore is possible, always same error: "failed: restore incompatible version".
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Question likely for @team-xapi-network

@payback007 Have you tried restoring the metadata prior to installing patches on the host?

@danp Restoring with installation from latest .iso the error was different. Don't remember the exact failures, but there was a statement about "missing columns". Searching the forum brought me to your post in 06/2024 to apply all the available patches. Patched then with "yum" and 155 packages were updated. Then the new failure with "restore incompatible version" came up. Due to missing XO capability that moment, I did the update using command line, maybe that's the failure?
